The course focuses in particular on knowledge of mineralogy, magmatic petrology, and associated metal deposits. These disciplines are addressed through a synthetic and comprehensive approach that integrates processes and establishes links between the main mineralogical and geochemical reservoirs. The lectures are supplemented by laboratory exercises in magmatic petrology and metallogeny through the study of macroscopic and microscopic rock and mineralized samples.
Objectives
Basic knowledge of magmatic petrology and metal deposits in a magmatic context.
Mandatory Prerequisites
Bachelor's degree in Earth Sciences or equivalent.
